REAR VIEW: NISSAN'S GT-STAR

0 Comments | Sunday Mirror, Oct 28, 2007 | by Brian Twomey

THE all-new Nissan Skyline GT-R is the star of the current Tokyo motor show and Nissan have described it as the ultimate supercar enjoyable to anyone, anywhere, at anytime. A 3.8-litre 480hp twin- turbo V6 provides the power and highly advanced, rear-biased four- wheel-drive system which runs through a six-speed paddle shift gearbox provides the drive.

Nissan have not yet released performance figures but the chief engineer on the project mentioned how much a challenge it was to make a car that was still refined and comfortable at 300km/h (186mph). The new Skyline GT-R will be available across Europe from next year and goes on sale in Japan on December 5.
